We have seen the regulatory landscape for digital assets change significantly.

Warren Buffett: “The most important quality for an investor is temperament, not intellect.”
A falling price can make a sound thesis feel wrong. A rising price can make a weak thesis feel right.
The advantage belongs to the investor who can separate what the market is doing from what the business is doing.
Tokenizing shares can create a recordkeeping challenge when onchain ownership records must be kept aligned with a separate offchain shareholder register.
@tZERO's transfer agent keeps them synchronized, supporting 20+ blockchains and traditional and tokenized share classes, all on one cap table.
$NXH told the market to expect Q3 revenue to be on the higher end of estimates, with margins exceeding expectations at over 30%, while expense reductions are also ahead of schedule & increasing in scope.
E-commerce near breakeven, but physical store performance is the question🤔

The Fed is expected to hold rates steady Wednesday, but it is a closer call on the data than the market-implied probabilities suggest.
The case for hiking:
1) The hot September CPI and PPI underscore a second straight lost year for getting inflation down
2) With a Dec hike widely expected, hawks will argue that there's less to gain from waiting six weeks given the cost of falling further behind
3) Hawks will also argue that policy isn't restrictive and needs to be
The case for holding:
1) If officials still think this is a 2-3 hike recalibration, spacing out remaining moves costs little. "Being six weeks late is a manageable risk," says Rob Kaplan
2) Back-to-back moves could signal a faster cycle than officials intend
3) After several officials signaled no rush, and Warsh’s silence let odds of a hold build, a surprise hike days before the midterms would be a jolt. The Fed has raised rates right before elections, but not as a surprise

Tax-loss selling is starting early this year. Earlier than I've seen in years.
Millions of investors are dumping stocks right now for one reason: taxes.
Not earnings. Not guidance. Not fundamentals.
That forced selling is pushing good companies below what they're actually worth.
Here's the mistake almost everyone makes when hunting for these bargains:
They screen for the biggest losers of the year.
Wrong number.
Someone who bought in 2019 might still be sitting on a gain. They have nothing to harvest. They're not selling.
The number that matters is how far a stock trades below this year's average purchase price, its year-to-date VWAP.
That tells you how many holders are underwater right now, and how much selling pressure is still coming.
Big gap below YTD VWAP = lots of trapped holders = more forced selling = bigger dislocation.
I built a screener to find exactly these setups.
Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing the best ideas it surfaces.
Follow along.

Tell me how much more leveraged people are right now relative to other times? People are financing everything. It’s all relative. You look at a few charts on shelter and rates and you think you see the full picture. Look at macro right now, America’s f******

The Trump admin is in a typical autocrat's trap. Even when things have gone very wrong, they can never admit error or say that they are not in total control. But if they are all powerful, I never make mistakes, why aren’t things going well? Predecessors and enemies, of course! Foreign, domestic opposition, etc. But this soon wears thin, and the longer you’re in power, the less credible it is that someone else is responsible. So, in order to keep power, they turn to outrages, creating more enemies, repression, and election interference.

We have had 13 recessions since WWII, average unemployment rate 7.8%, None of those recessions outside the 2008 housing crisis created nominal home prices to fall by over 1%, let alone crash.
